I think both sides are right. Exim is right to use a a null user, the receiving end can be right to filter out emails with a null user which or NOT bounces. Although I'd say that the latter is not according to smtp standards as much as the former. But one is free to filter whatever they want. The main problem is for those who insist on those pesky vacation/out of office auto replies. It's something which will never be perfect, or even workable. What I mean to say is, live with it.
